Texas Republicans Push to Define Biological Sex in Statute
“If biological sex were as obvious as lawmakers keep insisting that biological sex is, we wouldn’t be here.”Joelle DiPaolo (The Texas Observer)
New from Joelle DiPaolo: Republicans are at it again, trying to mandate the gender binary by law. Despite claiming to have science on their side, these legislators often eschew scientific facts, leaving intersex, transgender, and non-binary people in limbo when they do not fit into neatly legislated boxes. texasobserver.org/texas-lege-p…

#GOP lawmakers seek more #StateLaws on #transgender people
Bathrooms. Medical care. Sports. The definition of "male" & "female." In state legislatures this spring, #Republicans have kept a focus on transgender people. They have filed hundreds of restrictive bills.
The majority don't pass, like the majority of all bills. But dozens have, acc/to groups tracking anti-#trans bills. And, even when they don't pass, they can force votes to drive debate.
Transphobia is pseudoscience, like Race Science is.

Gender policing, attacks on trans folks, bathroom gender laws, do NOT protect cis women. They are sexist & fascistic, and they actually worsen the oppression of all women, including both cis and trans women, as seen by the recent harassment of a cis lesbian couple at a Boston hotel, the attacks on Algerian boxing gold medalist Imane Khelif, and the cis woman arrested for using a Walmart bathroom in Arizona.
